Hi
Not many regular posters here would download an attachment anyway. It sounds
like you may have leading/trailing blanks in your cells. That's the first
thing to check.
If they do not have, try copying a blank unused cell and selecting your
range and then Edit/Paste Special/Add.
This may do the job by converting your 'numbers' to numbers!
